Algorithmic Waves (Part 8)
Hatfield’s neighbors wonder what’s going on in his house.
Code is everywhere. The doorbell chimed and a knock came to the door. Hatfield looked up and walked to the bathroom. He washed his hands. He looked at himself in the mirror and saw the screen and then his own face.
“Hi.”
“What’s happening? Is everything okay?” Mrs. Korlin asked. She was inquisitive but had not called the cops or anyone.
“It’s fine. I’m fine. Everything’s alright. I’m just working on a project for work.”
He had not lied. He had every intention to bring the machine to his workplace for further inspection.
“Thanks again for your sincere, thoughtful concern.”

Breath issued from Angelica’s mouth. The weight of the baby put her into her chair. Her curves managed to say she had not been with child the whole time. There seemed to be a fantastic ideal swimming somewhere in her mind about the hazards of caring for two. She grabbed a magazine and fanned herself, knowing that she expended more energy in that effort sitting still and letting the air conditioning do the job. No, she told herself, without struggle there is no triumph. She switched on the television set. The picture looked as people had been replaced by blue aliens and she just watched her soap opera, void of extraterrestrials for this time.

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: You have the number, you know your schedule- you’ve even picked out the perfect day and time to make this appointment. Shoot, you’ve even picked out alternative days and times just in case their schedules can’t accommodate you!
